I need advice for picking out some wireless headphones for my father in law.  He is about 70.
 
Here's the summary:
1) Must be wireless
2) He will be watching TV laying in bed.
3) His wife will be asleep (or trying to sleep next to him)
4) Comfort is a must (no tight cans)
5) Price: lower is better.  I'd actually love recs for various price ranges.  $50, $100, $200.  (They can afford it)
 
Also, if a site is known for letting you get 3 sets and returning the two you don't like ... I'd much prefer that!
 
These will connect directly to the TV.  I haveto check make and model but what do I need to look for typically on the TV for connections?
 
THANKS!

It has headphone level outputs and digital audio out.

The vast majority of "wireless" headphones these days use bluetooth and since your TV can't supply a bluetooth wireless signal, you'll need something that comes with a wireless transmitter 
 
Here's one from Sennheiser, I haven't heard it, but for TV your audio quality is going to be pretty limited anyway

Also Amazon has great customer service so returns are super easy
